Do not click here

Ilya SherLeave a comment

Most of the sites use "click here for/to …" wording. That implies that:

  • The user is too stupid to see it is a link (alternatively the webmaster made it impossible to see it is a link)
  • The user has and uses a mouse
  • The document is not going to be printed (it will look stupid then)
  • The webmaster has no imagination
  • The webmaster does not care how the site will be indexed by search engines

Editing YAML with VI

Ilya SherLeave a comment

Put the following in your .vimrc file and you are set:

au BufNewFile,BufRead *.yaml,*.yml set et ts=2 sw=2

When you will be editing YAML files, you’ll automatically have the following behaviour:

  • et – expand tabs – puts spaces whenever you use tabs
  • ts=2 – tab stop – 2 spaces per tab
  • sw=2 – shift width – 2 spaces to move with < and > commands
